I am Arafat Hosen, an artist and educator with fourteen years of teaching experience. My passion lies in teaching, sharing skills and stories, and connecting with people from diverse backgrounds.
Plein air painting is one of my favorite practices, allowing me to explore the beauty of nature through watercolor. I see watercolor as a reflection of the mind—fluid, unpredictable, and ever-changing. Rather than controlling it, I embrace the experience, observing how colors blend and interact. Similarly, drawing is a fundamental part of my creative journey, where I find strength and expression.
Currently, I teach at Sydney Community College and WEA Sydney, offering fundamentals of drawing and watercolor painting courses for beginners and intermediate learners. I also conduct live demonstrations at various art communities across Australia.
In my classes, I encourage students to explore and experiment, helping them build confidence in their artistic skills. Whether you are a beginner or looking to refine your techniques, I am confident that you will enjoy my class and leave with a deeper understanding of watercolor and drawing.have been consistently high.
